Suede Leather

Suede leather uppers are the perfect solution if you're after a soft, comfortable and relaxed finish in both look and feel. Breathable and flexible, suede provides the most give out of all the Birkenstock uppers, quickly adapting to your foot shape and movement. The natural finish will develop an individual patina as it ages and wears, though can be kept clean with a suede brush or suede conditioner.

Sustainable Cork

The Birkenstock cork footbed is legendary, not only for its comfort and support, though also for its sustainability. The cork is responsibly sourced from the outer layer of the cork oak tree. Sections of the thick bark are carefully removed without harming the tree, allowing it to regenerate and be re-harvested every 7-9 years. A single cork oak tree can produce 100 - 200 kg of cork in its lifetime!

Footbed Features

The anatomical design of the Birkenstock footbed follows the natural contours of your feet to strengthen, support, activate, stabilise and align. Boasting features such as a raised footbed edge, toe grip bar, arch support (including transverse, metatarsal, interior and exterior longitudinal arch support), heel mould, deep heel cup, and plenty of toe room, it's no wonder the humble Birk is coveted the world over.

Birkenstock Classic Fit Details

Birkenstocks are available in Regular (R) or Narrow (N) widths. Regular is suitable for people with regular to wide feet, while Narrow is suitable for people with Narrow feet. We recommend opting for Regular if you are unsure.

This Birkenstock runs true to size. We recommend sticking with your usual size and refer to the Size Guide if you are unsure.

This Birkenstock provides support features including longitudinal, metatarsal and transverse arch support, a heel cup and mold, and raised toe bar for basic orthotic support.

Birkenstock Classic Size Guide

How to find your size

Step 1

Stand on a level floor with your heel up against the wall or straight edge.

Step 2

Place a ruler or measuring tape on the floor under your foot or alongside it, with your heel at 0cm.

Step 3

Measure the length of your foot from your heel to the end of your longest toe (yes, even if it's your second toe).

Step 4

Measure both feet and go with the length of your longest foot if they are different.

Step 5

Add 10mm to your foot length to allow your foot room to move. This will give you the footbed length you need to find your size.

Step 6

Check out the size charts below to find your size in EU (all Birkenstock sizes are listed in EU).

Step 7

Measure the width of your foot across the broadest point. Compare your foot width measurement to the footbed width in your size to see if you will need a narrow or regular width. (If you are in between sizes, we recommend going for the larger size)

Most Birkenstock styles are available in 'regular' or 'narrow' width.

Narrow width is suitable for narrow to slender feet.

Regular width is suitable for normal to wide feet.

If you already own a pair of Birkenstocks or are trying them on in store - check out the little foot symbol on the footbed. If the foot is coloured in, it's a narrow (N). If it's just an outline of a foot, it's a regular (R).

    Boston shearling worth waiting for

    i absolutely love this boston

    the story of getting them is long and with mixed views

    i wanted them a year ago and couldn't get them (none in store last winter)

    now they are in perth and i tried them on in claremont, for some reason the lady gave me one regular and one slim sizing so that was confusing, my son who was with me bought them as a surprise. went home, tried them on and they were too big (i needed the smaller size in regular. went back to claremont don't have them. went to nedlands, they had the size wrong colour so said please return as one online. the lady who was not assisted by her manager who was out the back, debited my son's card instead of credited and then had to reverse that. a lot of money for a young chap to wait 5-7 days for. then i ordered them online. they arrived. they had a scratch on one of them middle front and both scuffed in the way they were packed. the suede was marked. i went back to claremont. no stock in store which i knew and none online. the assistant was the best and very helpful. we talked about the options but i really wanted them so i decided to keep them.
